Booze / SIFF / Housekeeping / Celeb Tom Skerritt Happy Hour!

Posted by Lindy West on Thu, Jun 2, 2011 at 11:31 AM

"Come rub my elbow with your elbow!"

I am so pleased to announce next week's new and improved and evolved son of Slog Happy: Tom Skerritt Happy Hour!

It's called Tom Skerritt Happy Hour in honor of the final week of SIFF, and also because everyone's favorite Tom Skerritt, Tom Skerritt, will ACTUALLY BE THERE! All Skerritting around and stuff! With you!

Tom Skerritt Happy Hour will take place NEXT Wednesday, June 8, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. Vermillion Gallery and Wine Bar (1508 11th Ave) is graciously hosting, and providing some Skerriffic food and drink specials, including the Top Gun (a Rainier tallboy and a shot of Jack, $7) and the Sloppy Sheriff Jimmy Brock (sloppy joes, $3 each).

See you there, loved ones!

I don't think TS should be allowed unless he comments on at least one santorum thread. Then he will be a slogger!

Tom Skerrit once stopped into the gas station I worked at in North Seattle. He bought a 6-pack of Heineken and was driving a very new, clean, and white convertible sedan.
(But dnt_trst_me, this is the internet, storytelling news accounts are about as reputable as lizards on Wall Street/White House, especially if I were to blow smoke out my ass, and say the whole thing was very Keynesian.)

Tom Skerrit healed my ingrown toenail once when he fixed my foot with his steely gaze.

So long as nobody mentions "Our Town" things should go easy-peasy...

Wonder if he could best Sam Elliot in a staring contest.

It's about fucking time.

There is no "Our Town" -- it begins and ends with Top Gun. Can you bring him down to Portland so I can ask him why they didn't just have him fly as Maverick's rio during that last battle out over the Indian Ocean instead of having Merlin in there. Merlin was a dick. And you can tell Tom I said so!
